We are on an electric coop and they are NOT required to net meter. Polite as they are they hooked us up and didn't even charge us for a new meter but we get a pittance for over-production - unless we over produce during peak times when we go from something like eight cents to over six dollars for a Kwh. <br /><br />Informative piece of writing although I don't understand how so many folks always throw petroleum (as in gasoline) and stuff like solar/wind power in the same pot. We can't run our cars on electricity yet and gasoline is not really used for power generation.Peter Kienlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09785601995410870184noreply@blogger.com
